Spring and Fall Myomassology Programs Run Annually
The single identifying feature about myomassology is that treatments
are tailored to individuals, and a wide range of modalities are deployed. Myomassology gives us more tools in the toolbox. Basic massage focuses on Swedish massage only. Myomassology, however, treats the Swedish technique as one of a myriad of body techniques. We are considered the holistic form of massage!
We offer 2 Myomassology programs per year at Journey Within on beautiful Nellie Lake, 45 minutes from Timmins. Programs begin in March and September. Each program runs for 6 months, with students attending our residential retreat for one week (7 straight days each month) from Monday morning through the following Sunday afternoon. Accommodations available on-site (addtional fee).
